单词 nervo-
释义

nervo-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly.
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: nerve n., -o- connective.
Etymology: < nerve n. + -o- connective. Compare neuro- comb. form. Compare also French névro- (see neuro- comb. form). Attested in a small number of compounds from the mid 18th cent. (earliest in nervo-ligamentous ). Later superseded as a formative element by neuro- comb. form. The form nerveo- is also occasionally attested, apparently after post-classical Latin nerveo- ( < nerveus , adjective: see nervous adj. and n.); compare the following examples of use respectively in Latin and in English:1792 L.
